Nucleophilic C-vinylation or C-allylation of aldehydes and ketones followed by O-allylation of the obtained carbinols gave the corresponding allyl ethers. Ring-closing metathesis of the latter afforded cyclic ethers (dihydrofurans and dihydropyrans, respectively) which were then subjected to allylic oxidation to yield conjugated γ- and δ-lactones.
